Well, it is a new day and now I am starting over. Hopefully you will see some changes in the future. I have to get a new pic setup for the home page so expect that to change. Also I am no longer playing WoW so don't expect any Warcraft talk.
This blog will just be a day to day dealing with what i am going thought. I prefer this over facebook, but if anyone is interested I have a facebook setup also.
Expect more to come..

Week of running..
Well, I have been running more and more, currently up to 16 miles for this week. I jogged 3 miles yesterday and have 3 more for today. I think I am down about 10-15 pounds in the last month of jogging, but I know I am down at least 2 belt holes. I am in dire need of new shoes, but don't have the money get a new pair. I hope to get a pair in the coming weeks, but I will see.
Well, There are a lot of things going on in the coming weeks. I have my daughters 4th birthday, going to San Antonio, TX and also have my wife's 30th birthday. All of this along with the every day things that go on.
As for WoW, I got into beta but it has been so laggy I have not played much. Instead I have been playing my rogue again, and enjoying it very much. I am thinking about moving my priest back over to Baelgun, as I never play him because he is on the other server.
Till next time, will keep updating..

Busy week last week. Had a hurricane come though LR and it decided to damage my roof some. Ending up calling my insurance but they said that with my deductible, it is not worth using them, but instead just go get the shingles myself and do the work.
Because of the rain, i did not get to run as much as I wanted to last week. I only got 6 miles for last week, about half of what I wanted.
This week, I am pushing for 13 miles for the week, with 2 miles today and 1.5 miles tomorrow. My long day is Saturday with 5 miles.
As for Warcraft, I have been grinding SSO rep so I could get this shield, Sunward Crest. I will be going to Kara tonight and hopefully I will get some more tanking gear, so I can start running Heroic Magisters' Terrace and get Commendation of Kael'thas and Cudgel of Consecration

LR Marathon !!
Well, I am back. I was kind of in a drought and now I should be back. I have started running in preparation for the Little Rock Marathon in March.
I started last week and have been running every day with Sunday as an off day. I find it relaxing when I run. I don't have to worry or think about anything. I just listen to my Ipod and jog. After only a week, I have noticed a difference in my jogging. The longest distance that I have done is 2.5 miles. I know that it is a long way from 26.2 miles, but that is why I am starting now for the race in March.
A cool site that I have found for mapping routes around my house is, runstoppable.com This site uses Google maps to help create a route for your to run/jog.
I will log all my miles so anyone can follow. Last week, I ran 11 miles and today my scheduled distance is 1.5 miles.

Politics...
I know that I don't talk about this much, but something I read got me thinking. Did you know that this is the first US war that we have gone into without raising taxes. Instead of raising taxes to fund the war, we borrowed 750 Billion to 1 Trillion dollars form other countries. This is one of the reasons that the US dollar is so weak and a reason that the US economy is doing so bad.
So now that we know that, what can be done about it? My mother raised me to save money and to buy things when I had the money for it and guess what, this is what I have done though out my life and I have very little debt. Why can't we do the same for our country? Isn't it the same but just on a much larger scale?
I want to ask this to the candidates that are running for President. If there is someone out there that reads this little blog that has email address for each of the candidates, can you please reply so I can ask what plan they have to get us out of foreign debt.
Enough politics now, again if anyone knows of the email address of the candidates that I can send some questions to, please post them.

Sorry..
Sorry for the lack of post. I went out of town for training in Orlando and got back and had so many things to do that updating this blog was not close to my mind. While I was out of town, Megan had her "show me night" at dance/tumble. I will try and get the video up in the next few days. I have to do some editing with the video.
Well, a lot has happened since I last wrote. As I mentioned earlier I went to Orlando for some MS training. Let me tell you, coming from a Unix/Linux background I was skeptical. It was an eye opener. MS looks to have some nice server products out, with Server core 2008, IIS7 and Hyper-V.
I also got a new grill and have been using it and am really loving charcoal. I ended up getting a Weber One touch Silver and getting a clay pot to put under it for the ash. It works very well. The next thing I want to do is some smoking. Ribs, chicken, something easy for my first attempt. I also need to get a thermometer for the grill so I know what the temperature is while grilling.

30 Days..
I have been watching a show called "30 Days". Maybe someone of you have heard of the show, it is a reality show in which one person does something for 30 days. In the first episode of last season the host decided that he and his girlfriend would go live on minimum wage for 30 days. They found out how hard it was just living on aluminums wage and end the end, one of them had to work 2 full time jobs, just to keep up.
Going from this, I want to start a 30 days experiment. I am still thinking about what I can do for 30 days. I want to do something that will take me out of my confront zone because I believe that anything worth having takes work.
I thought about trying to bike to work for 30 days, but realized that I still have to take kids to daycare/school so that would be out. Other things I am thinking of is not eating meat, or no sodas. I am not sure what would I should do.
I know I have a problem with self control, so whatever I do will test me with this. Whatever I do, I will blog about it here, and I will tell you day by day what is going on.
